Bay Area to Sacramento artist network
Get in front of more real listeners, feed the algorithm with consistent playlist activity, and move with a network built for independent rap, hip-hop, and R&B artists who are tired of fake numbers.
StreamTeams is a free playlist intake hub created by Audrey Sikon. Submit your song, choose your playlists, and your request opens prefilled by text or email so you only have to hit send.
Check your daily stream count against the playlist size. If the count is off, let Audrey know so inactive listeners can be narrowed down and the network stays solid.
Use these totals as the baseline for accountability. If your daily stream count does not line up with the playlist size, flag it so Audrey can help find who is not completing the required listens.
Free playlist intake
StreamTeams is a free intake hub created by Audrey Sikon. Submit your song, our team reviews it, and it gets added to the StreamTeams playlists on Spotify, Apple Music, and YouTube.
How it works
StreamTeams is a free project run by a team of individuals. You submit your track once, she reviews it, and she adds it to one or more playlists and lets you know by text.
You fill out the form with your name, birthday, email, phone number, song URL, and which playlists you want to be considered for (Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, or all three).
It's free to submit. You just have to be real, reachable, and the song has to actually be yours.
Per 2 tracks you need to run the playlist 2x a day, 3 - 4 tracks you will be required to listen to playlist 3 times a day.
Acceptance for anyone willing to listen to the playlists as required.
Once you're added, you'll receive a text at the phone number you submitted letting you know exactly which playlist(s) you're on. From there, you are required to complete the daily listens.
The more artists you can encourage to join, the more listens you will start to get on your songs as well. A full potential playlist would reach around 500-1000 listens per day, Lets get there!
